HC Deb 12 July 1972 vol 840 cc356-7W
54. Mr. Kelley

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will amend the advice he has given to local authorities on the question of the sale of council houses to existing tenants in order that provision can be made for any increase in price, arising from a delay in the valuation being made, which is not due to any fault on the part of the prospective buyer.

Mr. Amery

I have no reason to believe that there is a general problem of the kind suggested by the Question, but if the hon. Member has particular cases in mind I will be glad to look into them.
